Prom Night Tips for Parents

Prom night can be stressful for parents. These tips will help you ensure a safe, worry-free evening.

Make sure your child has a plan for the evening and that you know it.

Work with the school to have food served during the prom.

Know all of the "hot spot" destinations.

Take stock of the alcohol in your home.

Know who is driving -- if it's a limo, check their policy on allowing alcohol in the vehicle.

Discuss the school's prom rules with your child and the consequences of violating them.

Encourage seatbelt use -- the best accessory!

Do not rent hotel rooms for prom-goers.

Communicate with other parents and school officials.

Stay up until your prom-goer returns home.
